Full Script
James: Elizabeth? Elizabeth, 20s, stands and smiles when she sees him.
Elizabeth: Hey. You must be James.
James: Nice to meet you.
Elizabeth: You too. They sit.
James: So, Peter tells me you’re a singer?
Elizabeth: And according to Gale, you’re a lawyer.
James: Perfect fit, right? Who wouldn’t think we’d be great together?
Elizabeth: Oh, I dunno. In this city, it seems to be all about what you do, but I look past that.
James: Actually, I love music. On my days off, I’m either at a rock concert or the opera. Depending on my mood, of course.
(laughs)
Elizabeth: Of course. I was just at the opera last weekend... Maybe we have more in common than we thought.
James: Maybe... They smile at each other. A spark.
